4169: That Crazy Animal Lady - Maximae

Jan 04, 2018 23:35

While the last gem was a possibility, this one I absolutely fell in love with. It’s called Bells & Bows and is surprisingly a Christmas one-shot. It also seems pairing Percival Graves with an OC is popular.

Creepy Sue is creepy.

Is she supposed to be charming? 'Cause dayum. o.O

So the obsessive fangirl's OC is....an obsessive fangirl. Just because it inexplicably worked out for Ginny doesn't mean it will work for you, kid.

I was curious about basically, a continuous plot error I thought I may have made (like I said so-and-so said this thing then forgot 5 chapters later) and wanted to correct it. Mainly because my personality is just like that, but! I am ADD rambling as I *try* to explain how i came across your posting about ma story ( ... )

This response is far more sound than the later one, both of which were posted when I took a sabbatical from the blog that lasted longer than I planned.

As for the question regarding Myst Fernaddete, my entry was far shorter than the 12.5k I read, yet the writer missed that there is a comma between Myst and Fernaddete, as well as the fact they were brought up in conjunction with the name Maximae, which in turn was followed up by a line about how these names don't make sense in the 1920s.

I point this out, because in the second comment the writer brings up the fact they're a trained historian and middle school teacher, yet didn't get I was referencing the names of the previous two Mary Sues featured here. And I still find a trained historian and teacher calling critique miscreant behavior in an author's note beyond baffeling, which is again, in reference to an authors note the writer left on the story.

Also her full name is araminte maximae. I only point this out because you seemed to have spent a hot second reading 2 chapters to bash me but couldn't figure out her full name (which was quite literally spelled out). Her name was very much well thought out after researching trends and most popular names in that era. I am a trained historian and current public middle school teacher, so I've heard *soooo* much worse. As such, I again (after rereading this 2 years later) I still love that my free hours of time elicited a response, regardless of how negative it was ( ... )

I read five chapters of the story before doing my write-up. I only point this out because the writer seems very keen on focusing on something I missed in my write-up of the first 12.5k of plot-what-plot. Having done a quick search of the story, not only does the name Araminte show up only once in that 12.5k of what I read, it doesn't show up again until chapter nine which is almost 50k into the story.

Also, can we please not blatantly lie about something anybody, trained historian or not can look up online? It doesn't take much effort to see that neither Maximae nor Araminta were popular names in either Britian or the United States during the 1920s. I'd love to give the writer that Araminte makes a whole lot more sense than Maximae as it was a name used in the 1920s, but the writer is here insisting that it was historically popular and trending at the time, rather than admitting that the name was unusual for the time ( ... )
